《威尼斯商人》 是英國(guó)戲劇家莎士比亞創(chuàng)作的戲劇，反映了資本主義早期商業(yè)資產(chǎn)階級(jí)與高利貸者之間的矛盾，是一部具有極大諷刺性的喜劇。

　　威尼斯商人英語(yǔ)劇本

　　A：Antonio S：Shylock D：Duke N：Nerissa B：Bassanio P：Portia

　　D: Have mercy on Antonio, Shylock. Do not be so bitter.

　　S: I've promised to take my pound of flesh. If you do not let me have it, that will be a sign of weakness and no one will trust your laws any more. The greatness of Venice will soon be lost. Antonio is my enemy, and I hate him. B: Do all men kill the things they do not love?

　　公爵：寬恕安東尼奧吧，夏洛克，別這樣懷恨在心。

　　夏洛克：我說(shuō)過(guò)一定要拿走我應(yīng)得的那一磅肉。要是您不準(zhǔn)許我得到它，那將是一種軟弱的表現(xiàn)，人們將不再信你們的法律了。威尼斯不久就會(huì)喪失它的偉大。安東尼奧是我的敵人，我恨他。

　　巴薩尼奧：難道所有的人都要鏟除他們所不愛(ài)的東西嗎?

　　A: It is useless trying to argue with Shylock. Don't wait any longer. Pass judgement on me and give Shylock what he wants.

　　B: I'll pay you six thousand ducats for the three thousand ducats that Antonio borrowed. S: If you offered me six times what you have just offered, I would still take my pound of flesh. Give me my pound of flesh!

　　D: Let us be calm, gentlemen. Shylock, how can you hope for mercy yourself when you show none?

　　S: I have done nothing wrong and I fear no judgement. I desire my pound of flesh.

　　As the Duke is wondering what to do, Nerissa, dressed like a lawyer's clerk, arrives with a letter from the famous lawyer whom Portia has visited. While the Duke is talking to Nerissa, Shylock gets ready to cut his pound of flesh from Antonio.
